Trick or Treat!

Well, it's that time of year again! Everybody's thinking about what they're going to be for Halloween. Planning your costume (or costumes, depending on how many costume parties you're going to) can be a total blast...it can also be a total nightmare. First you have to decide if you want to be sexy, or scary, or funny, or maybe a combination of the three. Then you shop around for the right costume. Then when you finally find it, you hope and pray that nobody else picks the same one.

It does not have to be like that. Because vintage is not only great for everyday wear, there are also a lot of great ways to incorporate vintage into your Halloween costume. Observe:

Ahh the 80s! What a wonderful decade for the athletes. The spandex! The neon! You've gotta love it. To complete your tribute to Richard Simmons, just pair a body suit like this one with some brightly colored spandex tights or leggings, leg warmers, and a pony tail right on the side of your head. And get ready to party off the pounds!!!
